Our annual fall Seattle trip!

We had such a fun time last weekend with the Thorntons! Ian is in Vancouver now becoming a prosthodontist and we couldn't be happier!
Secora, Alyssa and Noah were all there and you all had fun together, you with Alyssa mostly :)
This is all of us at the Pike Place Market.


The Seattle Aquarium was lots of fun too. This is where you can actually touch the sea urchins and star fish:

Your funny face again:


Of course, Daddy also went to his football game on Sunday with Claudio and Ian and Erin and I went shopping. You were an angel in the car (didn't sleep at all I might add) but you seemed to have a hard time throughout the weekend with being away from home. Every once in a while you would say "Going home now?" We'd explain to you that we were away for the weekend, on vacation in Seattle. You would get weepy and ask "Go home right now?! Why???"
So sad. Of course we would really play up how much fun we were having and that we were going home shortly. You are a real homebody I guess.
I wanted to find out exactly what you missed about being at home so I very casually asked what it was that you missed and you replied "Playroom. Jenny." I think you like your familiar surroundings and get a little anxious when away for too long, even if we're there with you.
You were just fine most of the time but you would sporadically ask about home and be sad, maybe about 4 times total. You did that when we went to Mexico too so it's not new to us.
We'll see if that changes as you get older! Other than that you were a super star traveler!
